Hi Stefano,
Here is the revised patch according to your suggestions. This should
allow for efficient inlining of the methods computing the map of
skipped macrobloks.
Best, 
Elias

Subject: [PATCH] Add support for libx264's MB_INFO

libx264's x264_image_properties_t, which is passed to the encoding function,
contains a field to pass down information on the portions of the frame which
changed with respect to the previous one (used for prediction) to mark
unchanged macroblocks P_SKIP.
